This story is a couple of months old now but I only just got wind of it.

Seems like someone took a Falcon apart to clean it and found a note from 'Derek' saying 'I have now made over 4000 of these things, when do I qualify for a free falcon?' On the overside of the note it seems to be a shipping slip note from 'Aldridge plastics limited'.

If you look at the comments on fb you will see they actually managed to locate the bloke who wrote the note.

Delete this thread if it has previously been brought up, just seemed really interesting to me!

That's cool I never heard of this. Even better story once the guy was located that had written the note!

Sorry guys, didn't realise it had already been covered. Don't get a chance to sit down and listen to podcasts these days so haven't listened in a while.
